Family-friendly holiday rentals in Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Pierce County

Love Darren’s place. It’s very peaceful and private. The cabin very cute. We enjoy oysters right from the backyard. The only issue is the road little scared to drive. Overall nice place to get away. Thanks Darren!

A beautiful space. The hummingbirds were flitting amongst the bushes, while the crows were rearing their young in the giant trees. The hot tub lies beneath the vaulted cathedral ceiling of ancient douglas fir trees. The soaking experience is the literal meaning of a forest bath. The cool clear water of the sound was a welcome repite from the heat of the tub. Sitting in front of a bonfire we watched a purple Mt Rainier fade with the sunset as the full strawberry moon rose over the hills sucking the tide out beyond the view of the waning firelight. The night time low tide and its crisp slipping sounds beckoned the inviting cool smooth sheets; an endless king size bed of relaxing contentment.

Very clean. Peaceful and relaxing. Good bed, slept well. Beautiful setting and view of the lake. Steve and his wife were very helpful, friendly, and responsive. Felt at home. Thank you both very much!

We absolutely loved our stay at this adorable beach cabin! The place was cozy, clean, and thoughtfully decorated with charming coastal touches that made it feel like a true getaway. We loved being just steps away from the beach. The cabin had everything we needed—comfortable bed, well-equipped kitchen, and a peaceful outdoor space that was perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The host was kind, responsive, and provided great local recommendations. If you’re looking for a relaxing, quiet, and scenic place to unwind, this beach cabin is a gem. Our dogs love it and we can’t wait to come back!

Our stay Angela‘s Aphrodite Airbnb was fabulous! Angela is a gem! You can tell from her home that she cares about her guests’ comfort. Every request we had was met with friendliness and responsiveness. I highly recommend her place. :)

This was my second time at the Woodsy Retreat and it was wonderful, again. Enjoyed a hike through the State Forest, the hot tub, and all the goodies and snacks! Perfect place to relax and get away from it all!

Absolutely gorgeous house and location! Looked exactly like the photos. We took advantage of the oysters right in back of the house and cooked them in the oven for a delicious dinner. The hot tub was the perfect place to watch the sunset. Lots of beautiful wildlife, including birds, fish, and seals that swam right up to the dock! Kayaks were another excellent feature. Overall, the perfect place to spend our honeymoon!

Enjoyed a lovely and peaceful stay! I wasn’t expecting the absolutely gorgeous view of Mt. Rainier or the delightful beach below the property. Very pleasantly surprised by that! Lisa was very friendly and personable, and I would have felt comfortable contacting her if I needed anything. Recommended!

We had a great stay while visiting family in the area. The home was clean and comfortable, and included nice touches like wifi and a guitar on the wall. The hosts were proactive and helpful in their communication. Location is near a Fred Meyer and the Tacoma Mall, but still on a quiet street. Also, quite easy to get up to downtown, Ruston Way, and Point Defiance.

We had such a lovely stay here over the Easter weekend – it was everything we hoped for and more! The house is clean, beautifully kept, and the views? Absolutely breathtaking. It’s one of those rare places that feels even better in person than in the pictures. It had everything we could possibly need – and then some. The hosts were simply wonderful – super friendly, accommodating, and just really easy to talk to. They made the whole experience feel warm and personal, not distant or transactional in any way. They even let us check in early and check out late, which made a huge difference for us with kids. Our days were filled with beach walks, seafood harvesting adventures, backyard chill time, and gorgeous sunsets. It felt like a perfect little reset from our busy lives. We were also celebrating our daughter’s 4th birthday during the stay, and she had an absolute blast. Can’t wait to come back. Thank you Dale & Carol.

Beautiful cottage on the water! The surroundings are very peaceful. Nice to watch the tides. the kitchen was well outfitted includingna gas range and teapot! Loved it, thanks, Erin!

Nice place as listed.

Absolutely incredible host. Unique situation for my family, they were willing to accommodate and was absolutely responsive from start to finish. We will be going back…. If I recommended for everyone, I may have trouble booking it again lol 😂 10/10 Absolutely Recommend 💯

This amazing cottage was very private. From where you parked your car, to the cottage, to the beach. The steps gave this old lady and her dog a workout, but it was worth it. The morning sunrise views by Mt. Ranier were spectacular and the waves' crashing below were so relaxing. The cottage was the perfect size for us and the deck made for excellent relaxing and reading time. So many shells on the beach!

My friends, pup, and I had a birthday weekend at the cabin that exceeded what we'd hoped for it. The cabin has spaces to gather and spaces to retreat to, and many options for watching the cove and the Sound. Using the kayaks was a highlight, and the impeccably outfitted kitchen delighted us again and again. We all can't wait to come back soon 🚣‍♀️🌅

My son and I couldn't have asked for a better start to the summer! Sema's tidy studio had everything we needed and was very functionally organized. Sema herself is super responsive and helpful. But the true show stopper is the lake! Head out to Sema's dock to kayak, fish, swim, or just chill with nature.

This home is located in one of the most beautiful locations -- gorgeous Harstine Island! The home is decked out (not to mention the wrap around deck is amazing!), spacious and as comfy as home in a fabulous beach community with trails for hiking through the old growth forest and beaches with firepits and excellent beachcombing. We absolutely give this property 5 stars and we'd give 6 if we could.

The home is gorgeous. So tranquil and peaceful -- my family took a week-long vacation on Vashon and Brita's was the perfect jumping-off point. The location is super private, the home architecture is extraordinary, and the backyard garden is expansive. If you're looking for a great place to rest and recharge, this is it. There is a lot of great dishware, artistic elements in the home, and incredible views throughout the home, especially in the kitchen and upstairs bedroom.

Peter is an excellent communicator! When we drove up to the home's gate we were very pleasantly surprised!!! The house is beautiful, very clean, and has an amazing view, plus we thoroughly enjoyed the pool and hot tub. There's also a two-person hammock, pergola, various outdoor chairs and tables. The kitchen was very well-stocked and we loved all the art and cookie jars throughout the indoors. We've stayed at many Airbnbs and this property is the very best! You will not be disappointed. Near there is the Wild Felid Advocacy Center (book a visit online) that shelters tigers, mountain lions and other large and small cats. If you go there make sure you watch road signs and addresses since our navigation took us elsewhere. The only marker for WFAC is a cat paw print at car-height. What heartwarming memories we built there during our vacation. Paradise, simply put. Thank you, Peter.

Dawson was an excellent host, my family and i enjoyed every moment spend at her place. She was able to accommodate me and my large group of family members at such short notice. The place is lovely, cozy and warm and had everything and much more that we needed to cook up a meal. The huge deck was a great place that we used to entertain and have games and food, the swimming pool was huge and amazing. The Hot tub was great to soak and hang out in the evening. The entire deck is lit up with string lights and we enjoyed it throughout the night. This place was perfect for our family gathering and getaway and will definitely book again. Thank you Dawson .

What more could you ask for, with a place by the lake. Propane gas ready for cooking on the grill, a nice seated area overlooking the lake. And big window outside of each room for good views. Very comfortable, very easy living, by the lake.
